Hi there. I have tried many times finding the best transparency tweak for WIndow XP to be transformed into Vista. I have checked out this tweak from Crystal XP
 
http://www.crystalxp.net/galerie/e [...] -tools.htm
 
But just wondering if there is an addon that adjusts the font, I mean its hard to read "title" of the windows.
 
I currently have Inspirat 2.1.0, been using it for some time.
 
What I really want my PC to becomes is something like  
 

 
In comparison to
 

 
which is blurred, and physically blurred, the font isn't as clear as I expected to be. I am not whining about the quality, but I just want to know does any one out there have another truetransparency or aero theme whatever that can bypass this lousy fuzzy theme still having the transparency of seeing the background on the 'edge' of the window.
 
I have tried that 9.0.1 Vista Transformation Pack which fails to work...and does not even reach anything close to Vista Inspirat. So I decided to keep Inspirat on while then...can I please have some help?
 
Also, can I know how to keep track of this post?

Euh, je voudrais savoir si quelqu'un pourrais me repondre si c'est bien normal que quand vous appliquer le TrueTransparency, le font est super flou...cest bien normal?  
 
Si cest le cas, y a til un moyen de le rendre plus 'sharp' comme la deuxieme image que vous voyiez?
 

 
Enfin, cest vrai qu'on vois une grande difference entre la vrai vista et le TrueTransparency. Cependant, je ne complain pas le logiciel, sauf je veux bien un autre qui fasse la meme fonction --- rendre les bords des fenetres transparentes...sans avoir le titre des fenetres (fonts) flou, ca fais mal au yeux...plutot dire cest pas pleasant de les lire..
 
J'ai tester le Vista 9.0.1 Transformation Pack, qui a merveilleusement failli...sinon je lai mal installer. Des conseils SVP?

Uh, well that could be one way, but I was looking for a watchlist or tracked post or something on CrystalXP. ... do you see what I mean?
 
is there such feature on CrystalXP?

 
You can edit the skin.ini file to change or remove the glow around the text (the line with GlowColor).

 
skin.ini file?
 
Where do I get that?
 
I see the TrueTransparency.exe
 
and there is config.ini
 
And yes I do see a folder called "skins" but nothing skin.ini...

Ok wait I found it
 
 
But what should I change it to??
C:\....TrueTransparency\skin\Aero\Normal\skin.ini
 
I have this
GlowColor=255,255,255,250
 
What should I modify to take off the glow and have a good visibility?

 
I you don't want glow, you can remove the line. Or you can try another color, the format is Red, Blue, Green, Alpha.

change the value 250 ( which is alpha) to less, something around 40.

as in
 
GlowColor=255,255,255,40 ???

Yeah, that would seriously reduce the glow.

Well I woudn't say that did not fixed the glow... I tried modifying to 0 and it still worked xD
 
Well it's ok to use for some while, but is there a better transparency that could probably work closer to the Vista one? I mean would there be another Transparency software...?

i had this problem to
thanks

 
I want something closer to this
 

Im guessing you mean that you want the blurred background? Umm- I think that there are no other free xp>vista skinning programs...  you can always try to find some...

Uhmm...not the background, the transparency ^^"...
 
Comparing the top picture...I want

is there any skin for this? or apps?

 
I'm working on this for the next version of TrueTransparency  

Flowright -> You want something like this ?
 

^^yup i want that too

No.

This is what I would like to be

Closest as possible...well is it ok to have a sharper and thinner font?

 
I thought you were talking about the ugly glow around the text.
 
You can already change the font if you don't like it.

 
Errm then what is the font that the Vista screenshot is using?    
 
And how do you change it ? I know Microsoft word....but not changing the whole XP theme....as applying fonts in every windows...I don't know how.
 
Are you saying right click on desktop > appearance > font size > choice???
 
Well I only have  
 
Tahoma
Calibri  
Arial
 
Basically they pretty much look the same   .

 
Well, it now closely looking at it, it's getting better than my first screen shot at the top...but is there any improvement?

 
You need to edit the skin.ini file of your skin.
 

 
I don't change the font rendering since my screenshot.

Uhuh, I agree, it fixes up the problem. But can I get any better than that?

I don't really understand what you mean...

I don't want to get you annoy for repeating or anything. What I want to ask in my post, is - is there another software other than TrueTransparency that delivers an effect of transparency, that matches more with the genuine Vista Ultimate glassy transparency?
